This game makes no sense

There is no rhyme or reason to this game! It takes forever to build a descent group of characters and then you go into various challenges in the game with much higher GP ranks or squad ranks and get beat. Even when you use the same squad against the same enemy squad.

Sounds about right.

WookieWookie only addressed the speed at which you progress. I have played for 2 years. The problem is the fact that much lower level squads are beating me, even when I use the same squad. For example, I had a 101,200 power Bounty squad that got beat by a 87,340 Bounty squad. That should not happen! This game has a definite Dark side bias. Much lower Dark Revan squads consistently beat my 150,320 Revan squad. The bugs are ridiculously over powered!

You clearly do not understand the game mechanics or the different character kits.

* GP is a measure of resource investment, not combat power
* There are a lot of different Bounty Hunters; which ones you use and how you use them is important
* Some squads effectively hard counter others because of their respective kits e.g. Darth Revan squads hard counter Jedi Knight Revan
* Some squads require specific counters e.g. you can't just throw any old squad at Geonosians but certain squads counter them easily and certain characters can solo or duo them if the conditions are right

Let's not even begin to look at this guy's mods. If he thinks bugs are OP and GP is meaningful, he likely has CD sets on characters with 30% CC.

Mods are what you’re missing… understanding mods is key to being able to beat teams. That and counters to teams as well.

At some point CG decided that "RNG" was the priority and lets RNG determine how things go in the game. Take the executor ship for example and the bogus level of RNG that happens and how often the AI "coincidentally" happens to get a turn JUST before your executor to do the ultimate, even if you're 5-10 turns ahead on the ultimate. But hey, the AI doesn't get any bonus or advantage. Nope, totally doesn't.

the RNG increases in this game exponentially and it's just plain garbage. Even in GAC, RNG is becoming the deciding factor and whoever can clear executor the most efficiently will probably win.

Then you factor in the Galactic Challenges that sometimes are pure RNG as to if you can clear it or not, if you don't have a 10 mil GP account based on the TM loading of the AI and/or the fact they'll take 50 bonus attacks for every attack they do.

Sometimes they might as well just throw a coin on the screen and have you flip it to see if you'll do well that day or not because of how bad it's getting.

Executor mirrors are far from a coin flip if you know what you are doing.

The AI is predictable, which is in the player’s favour.

I hear what you're saying, but even Xaereth and Bitdynasty have videos talking about the RNG of it. And the fact that I have to take mods off characters to win at a higher percentage is just dumb. It's weak zombie all over again. The AI also likes to go on "dodge" trains that players don't get to experience. I've never had one of my ships dodged 10 times in a row on offense, but the AI's done it to me multiple times. Again, RNG or the AI getting an advantage we don't have as players.

Since we lock our rosters in for GAC and TW now, it's not such a good idea to pull mods off to win more efficiently with ships since that makes the characters useless.

I matched the same bounty hunter characters the opponent had. My JKR and GMY are all blue color mods. The rest of the squad: general Kenobi, Bastilla and Jolee have level 6 mods. 3 out of 4 have speed on the arrow mod. Not sure what I'm missing.

You appear to be lacking a lot of understanding about mods. "Blue color mods" is about the least possible amount of information that you could give and shows they are likely your problem.

Was even worse when TBs were first released and people bloated their GP to get more stars. If I started over with what I know now I'd have a more rounded out roster with a concentration of having geared specific squads
